How do I properly maintain the DCT in a Ford Puma?

I recently purchased a Ford Puma with a Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) and I want to make sure I am properly maintaining it. What steps should I take and how often should they be done?

It is recommended to have the DCT fluid changed every 40,000 miles. This will help prevent any potential issues and keep the transmission running smoothly.

In addition to regular maintenance, I highly suggest avoiding rough shifting and excessive acceleration. These habits can put unnecessary strain on the DCT and lead to premature wear.

I have found using a high quality DCT fluid, such as the one recommended by Ford, to be very beneficial in ensuring the longevity of the transmission. It may cost a little more, but it's worth it in the long run.
